MTG Scars of Mirrodin: Deadspread

Gimmick: Spreading -1/-1 counters to kill creatures.

Pros: The -1/-1 in itself is pretty damn nice, as counters are pretty hard to remove. The deck also features plenty of cards used to add and duplicate the counters. If you happen to get the right hand, the enemy is left pretty much defenseless, leaving you free to rush.

Cons: I just gotta say... This deck isn't the best, there are plenty of cards out there that can turn around and bite your ass with your own mechanics, and this deck really isn't that good on the defensive.
Oh, once again, Blue can fuck this deck right up. Like all decks.

Suggestion: Don't touch this deck. Better options out there.

Quick note: I don't know what I'm talking about. I have no experience with breaking or using -1/-1's as a valid mechanic.
